<<Cramer had a bad year last year and he admits it. That is why I like to read his column, he has one of the best 10 year records of anyone around, but his ego is not like most traders - i.e. he will admit when he is wrong.>>

Are you kidding? Cramer never hinted he was only up 2% in 1998 (not a typo, two percent!), until the New York Times ran an article revealing his letter to partners. And then he bitched and moaned about how that letter was "private" to his partners.

He had to be dragged kicking and screaming into admitting how bad (2%!!!) 1998 was, and I lost a lot of respect for him, both as a trader (2% when the market was up what, 25%?), and because he mislead everyone all year in his columns, IMHO.
